Reports classes that can be converted record classes.
<p>Record classes focus on modeling immutable data rather than extensible behavior.
Automatic implicit implementation of data-driven methods, such as <code>equals()</code> and accessors, helps to reduce boilerplate code.</p>
<p>
  Note that not every class can be a record class. Here are some of the restrictions:
</p>
<ul>
  <li>The class must have no subclasses.</li>
  <li>All non-static fields in the class must be final.</li>
  <li>Initializers, generic constructors, and native methods must not be present.</li>
</ul>
<p>For a full description of record classes, refer to the
  <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se21/html/jls-8.html#jls-8.10">Java Language Specification</a>.</p>

<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>
  class Point {
    private final double x;
    private final double y;

    Point(double x, double y) {
      this.x = x;
      this.y = y;
    }

    double getX() {
      return x;
    }

    double getY() {
      return y;
    }
  }
</code></pre>
<p>After the quick-fix is applied:</p>
<pre><code>
  record Point(int x, int y) {
  }
</code></pre>
<p>Enable the <b>Suggest renaming accessor methods</b> option to rename <code>getX()</code>/<code>isX()</code> accessors to <code>x()</code> automatically.</p>
<p>
  Use the <b>If members become more accessible</b> option to specify what to do when conversion will make members more accessible:
<ul>
  <li>Choose <b>Do not suggest conversion</b> option to not convert when members would become more accessible.</li>
  <li>Choose <b>Show conflicts view</b> option to show the affected members and ask to continue. In batch mode conversion will not be suggested.</li>
  <li>Choose <b>Convert silently</b> option to increase accessibility silently when needed.</li>
</ul>
<p>Use the <b>Suppress conversion if class is annotated by</b> list to exclude classes from conversion when annotated by annotations matching the specified patterns.
